Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, cohort study evaluating an adapted rivaroxaban dose regimen in patients with acute, proximal deep-vein thrombosis (DVT) or acute pulmonary embolism (PE) who concomitantly use a strong cytochrome P450 isoenzyme 3A4 (CYP 3A4) inducer for the entire 3-month study duration.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (6)
Pharmacodynamics - Prothrombin Time (PT), Baseline Value
Prothrombin time (PT) is a global clotting test assessing the extrinsic pathway of the blood coagulation cascade. The test is sensitive for deficiencies of Factors II, V, VII, and X, with sensitivity being best for Factors V, VII, and X and less pronounced for Factor II. The initial read-out is in seconds. Mean and standard deviation (SD) values are presented for PT baseline.
The baseline value of prothrombin time is measured or calculated at a rivaroxaban concentration of 0 µg/L and is based on the observations that were made during the 3 months treatment period
Pharmacodynamics - Prothrombin Time (PT), Slope
Prothrombin time (PT) is a global clotting test assessing the extrinsic pathway of the blood coagulation cascade. The test is sensitive for deficiencies of Factors II, V, VII, and X, with sensitivity being best for Factors V, VII, and X and less pronounced for Factor II. The initial read-out of PT is in seconds. The PT slope describes the linear increase of PT for one unit increase in concentration, thus the unit of PT slope is s\*(µg/L)\^-1. The final population PK/PD model included a fixed slope that was fitted to the data of the 19 patients that were eligible for evaluation. The estimated mean value (fixed/ the same for all patients in this study) is presented for PT slope.
Up to 3 months treatment
Pharmacokinetics - AUC(0-24)ss (Area Under the Measurement Versus Time Curve From Time 0 to 24 Hours After First Dosing on a Day at Steady State) of Rivaroxaban
AUC(0-24)ss was predicted from rivaroxaban plasma concentrations for each individual participant and was only considered for the time period during which participants concomitantly received rivaroxaban and a strong cytochrome P450 isoenzyme 3A4 (CYP3A4) inducer.
0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 h after first administration of rivaroxaban
Pharmacokinetics - Cmax,ss (Maximum Observed Drug Concentration in Measured Matrix at Steady State During a Dosage Interval) of Rivaroxaban
Cmax,ss was predicted from rivaroxaban plasma concentrations for each individual participant and was only considered for the time period during which participants concomitantly received rivaroxaban and a strong CYP3A4 inducer.
0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 h after first administration of rivaroxaban
Pharmacokinetics - Cmin,ss (Minimum Observed Drug Concentration in Measured Matrix at Steady State During a Dosage Interval) of Rivaroxaban
Cmin,ss was predicted for each individual participant from rivaroxaban plasma concentrations and was only considered for the time period during which participants concomitantly received rivaroxaban and a strong CYP3A4 inducer.
0 (predose), 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 h after first administration of rivaroxaban
Percentage of Participants With Clinically Relevant Bleeding (i.e. Major Bleeding and Clinically Relevant Non-major Bleeding)
All events were adjudicated and confirmed by a central independent adjudication committee. Clinically relevant bleeding included major bleeding (overt bleeding associated with 2 g/dL or greater fall in hemoglobin, leading to a transfusion of 2 or more units of packed red blood cells or whole blood, occurring in a critical site or contributing to death) and non-major bleeding associated with medical intervention, unscheduled physician contact, (temporary) cessation of study treatment, discomfort for the participants such as pain, or impairment of activities of daily life.
Up to 3 months treatment and during subsequent 2 days
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism [VTE] (i.e. the Composite of Recurrent Deep Vein Thrombosis [DVT] or Non-fatal or Fatal Pulmonary Embolism [PE]) Until the Intended End of Study Treatment
Up to 3 months treatment and during subsequent 30-day observational period for an individual participant
Percentage of Participants With All Deaths
Up to 3 months and on-treatment (up to 2 days after stop of study drug) plus an observational period planned for one month
Percentage of Participants With Treatment Emergent Deaths - 7 Days Window
Up to 3 months treatment and during subsequent 7 days
Percentage of Participants With Other Vascular Events
Up to 3 months treatment and during subsequent 1 day
Study Arms (1)
Rivaroxaban (Xarelto, BAY59-7939)
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Participants received 30 mg rivaroxaban bid (twice-daily) orally for the first 3 weeks followed by 20 mg rivaroxaban bid for the remainder of the 3-month treatment period.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Confirmed acute symptomatic proximal deep- vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism
- Concomitant use of a strong CYP 3A4 inducer, (i.e., carbamazepine, phenytoin, rifampicin/rifampin, and rifabutin)
You may not qualify if:
- Legal lower age limitations (country specific)
- Thrombectomy, insertion of a caval filter, or use of a fibrinolytic agent to treat the current episode of deep -vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism
- Other indication for vitamin K antagonist (VKA) than deep -vein thrombosis and/or pulmonary embolism
- Concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., HIV protease inhibitors, systemic ketoconazole)
- Use of the strong CYP 3A4 inducers phenobarbital/primidone or St John's Wort
